Treatment of Love Handles with Laser Liposuction

Are you finding it difficult to shape up even with rigorous dieting and exercise? Or are you particularly bothered about those love handles? The flanks are one of those troublesome spots where people – especially men – tend to accumulate stubborn fat. Luckily, there is a solution – laser liposuction. This minimally-invasive treatment is a great option to address localized deposits of fat in any area of the body, especially the unwelcome bulge at the waist that is hard to hide.

The love handles are the area below the ribs down to the hips. Fat is this area tends to persist even if you manage to get the rest of your body in shape through diet and exercise. Superior laser lipo techniques such as Smartlipo Triplex are specifically designed to target such trouble spots. Just a short treatment can provide a significant improvement as this area is generally well-defined with good skin elasticity.

This SmartLipo workstation features a unique combination of three laser wavelengths – 1064nm, 1320nm and 1440nm. The procedure involves directing laser energy to target the site and melt the stubborn fat so that it can be easily suctioned off. The laser-enabled cannula also allows the plastic surgeon to contour the area and tighten the skin. This technology also comes with the intelligent delivery systems, SmartSense with ThermaGuide and ThermaView, which work to deliver just the right amount of heat and prevent overtreatment.

This procedure can effectively eliminate fatty deposits along the abdomen and back, slim the waistline and improve the body’s natural contours. After the procedure, many patients are motivated to maintain their new body shape with proper exercise.
